Robot Song Lyrics

I wish I had a heart
I'd call it tiger
And wrapped in silver thread
I'd tie it to my chest
To bring you home

I wish I had a car
And bits of wire
To tie you to the seat
I'd drive you to the beach
And keep on going

And I know when I've been stung
When I'm trapped inside my bed
Feel my flesh begin to swell
i'm an evil shade of red

I hate the taste of skin
It's terrifying
Reminds me of the truth
That biting bits of you
Can bring you home

And I hate
One sweet taste
And these miricals
I feel it in my skin
Know in my head
When you touch me

I am still awake at night
in my dreams
When my eyes are full of
Pictures of the day
But not quite right
just to bring you home

I'm so lucky
I can pick my feelings
I never want to cry
I'm so ugly
But I want to pick my feelings
So I choose not to mind
It's true
To you
It must seem sad
I know
It all
But I'm not sad belive me
'Cos I choose not to be

I wish I had the skill
To stop my thinking
Concentrate each breath
To make sure that it's done
It's not instinctive

Cover art for Robot Song lyrics by Kenickie

One of my favourite Kenickie songs! The way the song begins out of synch and by the end wonderfully marries until Lauren bittersweet vocal hits! haha Bliss! As the title suggest said song is about a robot, not any robot no less! My own interpretation of the song is that a robot wishes to be made human, to have a heart. However when this is made true the robot is overwhelmed by sadness it drives itself to almost destruction. Thats my favourite intepretation. Another would be about the break-up of a relationship and the homicidal feelings one has for another. Wander if there's any more?
